Allah's Messenger said, "Ramadan, a blessed month, has come to you during which Allah has made it obligatory for you to fast. In it the gates of Heaven are opened, the gates of al-Jahim are locked, and the rebellious devils are chained. In it Allah has a night which is better than a thousand months. He who is deprived of its good has indeed suffered deprivation."

With the gates of Jannah opening soon, we must take advantage of this opportunity to come together and celebrate the most powerful time of the year.

Fluidvisions Creative Marketing, with http://www.uicmsa.com/ - UIC MSA as the official sponsor, will hold Chicago’s first ever Ramadan Project, insha’Allah on October 1st. This will be an opportunity to explore the creative talent that our community has to offer.

Ramadan Project: Shades of Ramadan serves to enhance spirituality as you prepare for Ramadan. The event will be held at Pick-Staiger Concert Hall (50 Arts Circle Drive, Evanston) at the Northwestern campus and will begin promptly at 6:00pm.

You will be left mesmerized by the community’s best performing artists as they showcase their talents in brilliant fashions to celebrate the days of mercy, the days of forgiveness, and the days of emancipation. Beautiful recitation, exhilarating poetry, spiritual songs, and much more await you on this night of inspiration.
